Usage of WAIT function in Oracle Workflow

Hi all,
I am new to Oracle Workflow, I interested to learn about WAIT function, So I gone through the docs provided by Oracle. But I am not able to figure it out. Can any one explain me abuot WAIT function in 2 or 3 lines.

Access Control functionality in Oracle workflow

Hi everyone,
I am doing research into access control models and workflow systems (separation of duty policies in particular). As far as I could tell, Oracle Workflow does not provide much in terms of securing access to data in a workflow process (except from the normal login authentication of course).
One usually assigns a task's performer to a CONSTANT role from your database roles so that only certain users will have access to that task. This is not always enough though, especially when the role-hierarchy is not properly contructed and maintained. So, I've been working on a few scripts to dynamically prevent users from receiving tasks on their worklists based on their previous participation in the process (e.g. to prevent a manager from approving his own leave application).
I was just wondering if anyone else have been working on access control in Oracle Workflow. Is there any built-in functionality that I missed that controls task-user assignment?
Thanks,
Carmen

Thank you very much Sirish for your help.
We are facing huge performance issues while Risk Analysis with Oracle Application servers through Greenlight Adaptor - its taking around 10 hours for 3000 users. Can you please point out what can be the possibilities and how can we trace out exact root cause and then solve it.
This is happening on GRC AC 5.2 SP10 and GRC logs doesn't say much , it just gives output taken 12 secs for one user Risk Analysis.
Here is our understanding on how GRC does Risk Analysis and our observations on our systems -->
1. GRC asks for 1 user details at a time from Oracle Application Server - please confirm does GRC do Risk Analysis for one user at a time or a bunch of users?
2. Oralce App server get details of that user and sends back results to GRC.
3. Now there is a wait time for around 3 secs before Oracle Server gets request for the second user. 3 sec for one user means 2.5 hours of wait time for 3000 users. We are not able to understand why Oracle Server needs to wait for next user request from GRC?
Would highly appreciate if you can share your experience on GRC Risk Analysis with Oracle (Greenlight Adaptor) and with SAP systems.

Issue in Wait function in APEXP workflow

Hi Friends,
I am working on APEXP R12 12.1.3 version
Requirement: user expecting the email notification 48hr after summation of expense if he is not submitted the image.
Customization I have done: I have used the standard Wait function after “wait for image receipt” node to wait the workflow for 48 and sending the notification. i am passing node attribute value as Relative Time :0.5
Issue: Wait is not working user is getting the email notification immediately

Appreciated for the response and thanks in advance

Wait functionality in Workflow

Hi Everyone,
I was trying to implement the wait functionality in a workflow. I did the following.
1) Changed the Node type to Relative Time and value to 1 minute.
2) Changed the status to Timeout in the workflow for that Notification.
3) In my pl/sql package, i have written as follows:
IF (FUNCMODE IN ('TIMEOUT')) THEN
WF_ENGINE.Background('WorkflowItemName', NULL, NULL, FALSE, TRUE, FALSE);
RESULT := 'COMPLETE:APPROVE';
END IF;
Now, even after waiting for more than a minute, the notification is not going to the next level. Can anyone please give suggestions??
Thank you
Jim

Hi,
Let's start with the original post - you don't need to have anything in the code that performs differently in TIMEOUT mode, unless you want specific logic to fire when the timeout transition is taken. As you've found, you need to run the background engine for that item type in order to move the process on.
You can perform whatever logic you want on the timeout transition. Sounds like you want to resend the notification to the original recipient and also to the next recipient at the same time (which could be problematic...). However, there are two ways that you could model this.
1 - Timeout transition returns back to the original notification, so that notifies the original recipient. A parallel timeout transition determines the next recipient and then goes to a different (identical) notification. You then have two notifications open at the same time, so you need to include an "OR" activity so that only one of those can move the process onto the next step. This is not something that I would advocate.
2 - Timeout transition goes to a new PL/SQL activity. In that activity, retrieve the current responder and the next one, and add them to an adhoc role. Then transition back to the notification, but send it to that adhoc role now. The question really is whether you accept a response from either of those recipients, or does one take precedence over the other? If you are accepting a response from either, then do not tick the "Expand Roles" checkbox, and the standard functionallity will process the first response that comes in. If not, then expand the roles and you will need to have a post notification function for the notification to determine what happens for each response.

Oracle Workflow

Hello,
We are planning to build workflow capability to our product. This product is written in C++ and uses Oracle 8i enterprise edition as database. One of the option is to use oracles existing workflow engine as the base and build over that. I had the following queries on the oracle workflow.
1. Is oracle workflow a part of Oracle 8i enterprise edition. If so is there any additional license to be obtained to use this product?
2. What are the components of Oracle workflow engine? What additional products of Oracle has to be purchased for full functioning of Oracle workflow?
3. Any information on functioning of workflow engine. ie. What happens after a Workflow process definition has been imported and this process is initiated.
4. Is oracle workflow complaint to Wfmc standards.
5. How powerfull is Oracle workflow when it comes to integration with external systems.
It would be great if any body could help me any of the above questions in part or full or even send some other comments that they feel would be usefull.
Thanks and regards
Rajesh

I can answer some of your queries, as i have worked on Oracle Workflow in globally deployed applications in the financial services industry.
1. oracle workflow is part of 8i enterprice edition
2. workflow consists of the workflow server (set of plsql procedures) and workflow builder (tool used to build your workflow's). Though if you want to include other than HTML documents(say Word, Excel...) as attachments to your notifications you can consider iFS. You can also consider using 9iAS if you want to do a bespoke customization using the Java API.
3. The scope of this question is huge. I would suggest you take a look at the Workflow Guide. Referring to the specific query raised by you, once the process is initiated the workflow engine will push it through the various activities in your workflow with the objective of running the current instance to completion.
4. I remember reading that Oracle Workflow is WfMC, though I am not able to locate the link.
5. The projects I have worked on.. Oracle Workflow intefaces with Sybase, Informix, DB2, IBM MQ Series, TIBCO Rendezvous, Weblogic JMS... Oracle Workflow provides external java function which can be used to interact with external applications. Oracle 8i database also supports JMS 1.2 standards based API. You can also use that to interact with queueing systems.
Hope you find it useful.
Thanks

How to use java api for function activity in embed oracle workflow?

because i can't install standalone oracle workflow successfully.
pls tell me how to use java api for function activity in embed oracle workflow?
are there some patch or pulg-in package?
ths a lot...........

The Java Function Activity Agent is not certified for Oracle Workflow embedded in Oracle Applications. Installing standalone workflow should be a lot easier than what you have found, although it looks like you did hit a Pentium 4 issue with the Oracle Universal Installer. I suggest you contact Oracle Support or Oracle Consulting for assistance.

Oracle Workflow Erroring on Function/Shell Script

We are in the process of upgrading databases and reimported all the OWB code into the new database.
Currently our OWB mappings all seem to run ok, but when I try to run a process flow I am hitting the following error
RPE--2075: Oracle Workflow failed to process the execution request for activity LD_EDW_MAIN:F_GET_DB_NAME. This may be because dependant objects have not yet been deployed. ORA-20010
F_GET_DB_NAME is a function and I checked and I see that the function executes properly
I also hit a similar error when trying to execute a shell script.
How would I go about deploying a function or a shell script?
Im relatively new to OWB and am being "force fed" learning since we lost our main OWB colleague.
Thank you

Thanks! for your reply.
I am using this API outside the workflow.I am using this API for iExpense to approve an Expense Report. In Expenses Workflow below are the processes:
1. AP_MANAGER_APPROVALPROCESS whihc is using NON_AME_APPROVAL_PROCESS and this is using REQUEST_APPROVAL_PROCESS and under this process there is a notification APPROVAL_REQUES. Now, I am completing this ACTIVITY as Approve and I am able to do that but problem is that REQUEST_APPROVAL__PROCESS is itself not getting completed and stuck here.
Please let me know how can I achieve that.
Thansks!

Oracle Workflow - Statement of Direction and BPEL

Hi,
I am starting to study Oracle BPEL and other people at my company are studying Oracle Workflow.
Recently I found the following article at the OTN, regarding the Statement of Direction of Oracle Workflow:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/workflow/workflow_sod.html
It finishes saying:
"As Oracle BPEL Process Manager provides out-of-the-box features for building human-based workflows, rules-based process automation, and integration style business processes, further development on OW4J will not continue and OW4J will not be released.
Any new or existing customers who wish to build business processes in the middle tier are recommended to use Oracle BPEL Process Manager."
So my question is: Does Oracle BPEL provides (or will provide) all the functionality implemented in Oracle Workflow ? If not what are the main differences ?
I will be waiting for your thoughts
Thanks,
Claudio.

Site mentioned above is an internal site. External site is http://otn.oracle.com/bpel
I think the above highlighted SOD is about Oracle initiative to re-write current pl/sql based Workflow engine in Java so that it can ported to middle-tier. Since the acuisition of Collaxa they seems to be dumped that idea and positioning Oracle BPEL as the middle-tier process orchestration (BPM) solution.
Having said that let me take a shot at comparing Oracle Workflow and BPEL products....
Oracle Workflow
* No way getting dropped as Oracle EBS has huge investments in it
* Oracle Fusion Applications has plans to use the Oracle Workflow BES functionality extensively
* Good for modeling business processes within a single DB/application instances. It's possible to integrate with external apps but not an elegant solution
* Web Services can be a functional activity with in the work flow but again not an elegant solution. Requires DB java, queues and a listener
* Doensn't provide sophisticated modeling artifacts like TaskManager, Faults, sensors etc out of the box. It's possible to build your own library.
* Better performanent if the entire process interaction is within a single instance like Oracle EBS account generators, approval flows etc.
* Based on proprietary technology
Oracle BPEL
* Based on standards like BPEL, WSDL and WSIF
* What ever you can do in workflow can be done in BPEL but not the otherway round
* Has adapters to interact with various transports like JDBC, AQ, JMS, JCA, HTTP. That means integration with existing workflows is very easy
* Interation with Oracle AQs seem to be trivial as there is a native JCA based adapter for it
* You may get performance hit because of the multiple connection points. You may be loosing performance but gaining in flexibility
Overall Oracle BPEL seems to be the way to go if your business process involves multiple applications.

Hi,
I had never tried to install that, I prefer that DB to be down, since there may be some thing which requires the DB should be down if at all needed to apply or change any objects the servive might started or DB is started by installation application it self.
Let us wait for comments from others based on there comment you can proceed further.!!
So that I can learn some thing inturn..!!

Setting the 'WAIT' function

Hi,
Can someone help me to set the wait function to 5 minutes ?
Thanks In advance

Set the Wait Mode attribute of the activity to Relative Time, and set the Relative Time attribute to the relative time interval
you want, expressed in <days>.<fraction of days>.
See: http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle9i/doc_library/release2/workflow.920/a95265/std04.htm#index-Wait-activity---0

How to commit a transaction in Oracle Workflow

Hi All,
Oracle says there should not be any commit in Oracle WF .It is the responsbility of the calling program to Call Commit.
I have the following Requirement:-
I want to insert a record in one of the custom table, when a record is saved in one of the Oracle Apps Form( for e.g. insert a record in the custome table when user creates PO.)
What I have done is :-
1) Added a subscription to one of the seeded events that is raised when user saves a record in the Oracle apps.
2) Designed a Custom Function, that is called when the above subscription is triggered off.
3)The above custom function inserts a record in the custom table.
Q ) where to write a Commit ( as this custom function is called from the WF and WF says, dont put commit in the WF,it should be called by the callling program)
Can also you explain me , when user presses the Save button on the Oracle standard form--> that calls the Oracle API to create a record in the DB and commit , ---> then the event is raised and trigger offs all the subscriptions where does it commit then?
Thanks

Hi,
The commit should be done by the form, or whatever raises the business event.
The API fires the event in the same transaction (unless the subscription is deferred), and then the commit is issued. This commits the transaction, and all actions of the event subscription.
If the subscription is deferred, then the concurrent request which processes the subscription will issue the commit on completion.

Matt

Calling Oracle Workflow in Real-Time

I want to modify the logic in Oracle Apps (both Oracle self-service (pure HTML and JSP) and Oracle Forms applications) to make real-time calls to a mainframe system. The page needs to take different actions depending on the data from the mainframe system.
I want to avoid actually customizing the Apps and Forms pages if possible due to customization maintenance and support issues. I have been told that I can use Oracle Workflow to modify the actions of the pages without having to resort to customizations, as calls to Workflow are already embedded. Is this true, and if so, how would I go about inserting a call to a mainframe system?
I am considering mainframe calls using either a proprietary ODBC driver from a third-party vendor, or devising some sort of SOA interface to the mainframe (I know it would require custom development on the mainframe side).
Thanks!

I'm pretty sure the sbRIO cards only have 1 FPGA on them. So when you load the second FPGA code, the first is being overwritten. You need to make a single FPGA VI that can handle both functions. If you post your code, we can give more detailed advice.
There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions

What is use of Rewind facility in Oracle workflow ?

Hi Guys I am new to Oracle Workflow ... I have few doubts on Rewind facility in Workflow as follows ...
Please spare some time to respond back ... Thanks in advance
1. What is the Use of Rewind option ?
2. Whats scenario we shoudl use it ?
3. What are advantages of it ?
4. What are the drawbacks of it ?
5. Any other details to know more it ?
Raghu

1) it will 're-start' a Workflow at any Function in the Flow, even all the way back to the first Start.
2) At one point certain of our SSHR changes would error on Event Alert triggers. Rewinding would successfully save the data. Another use is when a change errors because of termed Supervisors. After the Supervisor has been corrected, rewinding will allow the change to progress.
3) it means there may be a way to recover a FLow
4) Doesn't always recover the Flow
5) not really; try it out in test environment

Oracle Workflow Manager, Agent Listener, and Java Mailer problem

Hi,
I am not sure this topic to this forum, since this might be installation issue.
But I am hitting a big wall.
I had Windows 2000 SP4.
I have already installed Oracle Database 10gR1, Oracle Developer 10gR2, and Oracle Workflow 2.6.3 Standalone previously.
Including :
- Oracle Workflow Server 2.6.3
- Oracle Workflow Builder 2.6.3.5
- Apache HTTP Server 9.0.4
- Workflow Middle Tier
Anything seems to right, including the Notification Mailer and the Business Event.
And I had also made backup of them surely.
Now,
I'd like to change into Oracle Database 10gR2 because :
1. Some errors I found when I tried to call a Report from Oracle Form.
Unable to connect to Report Server ...
I thought Oracle Database 10gR1 is not suitable for Oracle Developer 10gR2.
2. And in the OWF 2.6.3 Workflow Home Page, there was no Logout button (which I found in OWF 2.6.4)
I removed my previous installation including Oracle Workflow.
After strugglineg in the installation of Oracle Database 10gR2, now I am facing another problem with Oracle Workflow.
I succesfully installed Oracle Workflow 2.6.4 Server and Oracle Workflow Manager (standalone version),
and the Oracle Workflow Middle Tier.
After I launch Oracle Workflow Configuration Assisstant, everthing seems to be normal.
I succed to open the Oracle Workflow Home Page (and found the Logout button there)
Next, I tried to navigate to the Oracle Workflow Manager.
1. I start the OC4J_Workflow_Management_Container --> initialized
2. OC4J_Workflow_Component_Container
The following error line appeared in the OC4J command prompt
06/05/26 10:31:40 LOG_ID_UNKNOWN : oracle.apps.fnd.cp.gsc.Logger.Logger(String,
int) : Logging to System.out until necessary parameters are retrieved for Logger

06/05/26 10:33:57 Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE 10g (9.0.4.1.0)
initialized
3. finally it initialized
Next I tried to go to Oracle Workflow Manager from related link of Enterprise Manager
It is said that the OWF_MGR is locked
(I surprised since I had UNLOCKED the OWF_MGR after the installation and succeed to login at the Workflow Home Page)
And the following error line appeared in the commaned prompt after that
06/05/26 10:35:03 OrionCMTConnection not closed, check your code!
06/05/26 10:35:03 Logical connection not closed, check your code!
06/05/26 10:35:03 (Use -Djdbc.connection.debug=true to find out where the leaked
connection was created)
4. I re-UNLOCK the OWF_MGR and login to Oracle Workflow Manager
I noticed that the Agent Listener and Notification Service is Unavailable
(In OWF 2.6.3, The Agent Listener was started and Notification Service was waiting to be configured)
I tried to start one of the Agent Listener, but the following error appeared
ERROR: The Service Component Container is not running
Well, I had the same problem when installing the OWF 2.6.3
I tried to uninstall (remove) and re-install it like I had done before in OWF 2.6.3
(based on someone's post in Oracle's forum)
But this time, the re-installation won't fix this problem. (It was succeed in the OWF 2.6.3)
Everytime I start the OC4J, using wfmgrstart.bat and wfsvcstart.bat
the OWF_MGR is re-LOCKED(TIME) automatically.
And the servlet (WFALSNRSVC and WFMLRSVC) are not running.
I am worry, since I cannot use the Notification Mailer if this problem had not fixed yet.
(In OWF 2.6.3, the mailer was not available until those servlet is Started)
Sorry for the long post.
Any help would be grateful.
Many thanks,
Buntoro

Hi,
Finally, I have found the solution.
Step :
1. Start all of the Oracle Service, except for the OC4J
If you have already started OC4J, then stop them
Unlocked the <wf_manager_user>
2. Search in your Oracle Home : data-sources.xml
There should be two files,
one is in the ...\OC4J_Workflow_Component_Container\application-deployments\WFALSNRSVCApp
the other is in ...\OC4J_Workflow_Component_Container\application-deployments\WFMLRSVCApp
3. Make sure, you create back up of them.
4. Replace the following line
password="->pwForOwfMgr"

This worked for me.
Hope this will help someone who has the same problem.
